Jim June 09, 2012 for Model Number TAWS750PQ0 I'm the one with the Estate by Wirlpool washing machine that did not spin when it gets to the spin cycle. I replaced the clutch assembly and it still will not spin on it's own. We have to open and close the lid to get it to spin. Any other suggestions?
1 Answer Jim, When you had the drive tube apart, did you check the brake shoes 285438 ,for a possible drag, excess wear, or clean and lube the rollers and assembly ? Did you check between the outer tub and spin basket, for a stuck article. There's a slight possibility the spin tube bearings are worn , but there is usually a noise in the spin cycle, do you recall a noise ? Are you sure there is a pause before the washer attempts to change cycles and starts to spin, and that the tub is attempting to spin, This would indicate an issue in the timer contacts, if theres no pause or if the washer continues to agitate, until the lid is raised and lowered. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Jim June 01, 2012 for Model Number taws750pq0 We have a Estate by Wirlpool heavy duty washing machine that does not want to spin when it gets to the spin cycle. If we open the lid and here a clunk and close the lid it starts to spin (sometimes). If not I have to spin the drum back and forth to get it to spin. Any ideas?
1 Answer Hello Jim. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the clutch assembly 285785 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
